All the defoliating I did seemed to have grown back in by Monday. The growth I'm getting seems really good. Decided not to defoliate anymore until the end of the week. Friday was a good growth day for the Rhino Ryder. It really started branching with all kinds of new growth. It may have something to do with the light being lifted up a few inches to keep the 18" away from new growth. The Hobbit has really dense branches. Clearly the Rhino Skin is helping as I've been providing the full dose lately. I also realized if I didn't start some serious LST on the Hobbit then I would never get those branches to bend. I opened the plant up a bunch to get the growth going out instead of just straight up.
With all of the branching I'm seeing the possibility of at least 10 colas for each plant.
I'm guessing within the next week or two I will need to start vegging nutrients. I also want to add additional Emerald Harvest supplement nutrients. I'm really loving the results I'm getting so far with them.
Nice tote man! Just saw your post on reddit. I was also conserned about hight, that is why I wanted a bucket, they are easier to stack. But totes give more width to work with.
Good luck and keep it up!
@CloudSlappy, I can emanate that's a pain in the ass! Luckily it's a joy to work on and expand spacebuckets with new features 😁 keep us updated on your setup, very interesting stuff!
@Trainrails,Thanks! I will definitely be adding a scrog. If I can keep the height to 1/2 the bottom tote then height won't be an issue at all. The bigger problem with height is the difference between the two plants and having the lights at a height that makes sense for both. I may put all the lights on a rail system that would allow for adjustable height of the quantum boards while keeping the cob centered.
@HighTV, Yea they are both getting pretty full. I'm starting to finally see some vertical growth, but nothing explosive. I'm hoping to get at least 2' tall.
